Sounds like your compression is gone, most likely head problems in combination of bad piston rings. Look for a new or used motor to replace yours with.

about how much am i looking at, because i have till january, so i mind as well just hit the SR

this is why you take it to a shop and ask them to look it over, they can tell you whats wrong and give you an estimate on how much it costs. If its really dead already your seller might refund you.

hehe well that's a relief, and embarassment, hehe. at least it wasn't anything as serious as having a finished engine. wonder if the seller just pulled the wire to mess with ya, heh.

Well, it's better to find out from a friend, then taking it to a mechanic and getting scammed.:pface

Post by **NIGHTfall_240sx** » Tue Sep 30, 2003 1:15 pm

Post by **leftovercrizack** » Tue Sep 30, 2003 1:15 pm

They'll be all "oh my god, did someone hit your engine with a hammer? it looks like they did" then tell you they'll have to swap a new engine into it. Then they'll just fix it and let it sit around for two weeks acting like they're doing something.:thumbup

Good thing your friend did find it, instead of some shop telling you that you need a whole new engine.

everyone makes mistakes, ask PunkedS14 what happend to him when he put his new intake on.He'd start it up and die, start up and idle down and die.I got to be the good friend and tell him his o2sensor was on backwards
